Hot Rods A Boat-Tail Speedster and a Mustang fender… “say what?!!?”

That’s a great red.
Painted a 40s baby stroller that color

 

Does kinda resemble a vintage MG on steroids.

 

Thanks! I was inspired by this pic… I’ll definitely have some numbers on the rad when she’s done.

 

Would love to, but can’t find anything local and shipping is insane now. Not to mention what guys want for a 40 ford hood in decent shape. I’ll have to make what I have work.

 

Yes Sir! Wagon is still running strong. The motor and trans I have were going to be for the wagon if it blew on our trip. So the wagon proved itself… so motor is going in the new build. You can see the wagon peeking out in one of the pics. Lol

 

I wasn’t planning on running a windshield but I did find this one off a T I think. It was in my stash in the barn. Kinda works… undecided are this point. Still doing a lot of standing back and just looking. Also measured up the Rambler motor and looks like it should fit perfectly.

 

In spite of a particular pony not being in favor here, I think maybe Mark and some of the rest of us might actually get a certain satisfaction seeing the evil sheet metal being forced into service to build something that we like.

 

It’s just a piece of metal… I even took off the emblems. Lol

 

Mustang fender begets a rambler powered boat tail speedsters

The Automotive Gods are smiling at you my friend . That first sentence should have sounded like this ….

Vomit , barf and warm diarrhea.


But in your incarnation it simply fits together and looks great doing it !!

go man go !

 

"You got good braingz, boy!(and great vision) Anything with an "M-word" part makes me giggle!

Well, dang. Whoda thunk? Neat idea.

That thing is looking awesome. I dig the windshield

 

I think you just elevated the Pennsylvania mystique....move over Johnny Ott.

 

Neat trick. Need to keep an eye on this

 

I appreciate all of the build threads, and the people who take the time to post them.
Did I miss your build thread?

 

Nice work @Driveway builder..looking forward to your progress.

 

Did you do a search?

 

I used a 40’s something Chevy hood , sliced and diced.......

 

Very cool!

 

Looks like something Roth could have built…if he was a good welder!

 

Well what'dya know? A pre-war pony car.

I don't know what kind of dark magic you're slinging over there, but keep it up! This is cool!

 

!!!

 

Just proves mustangs are good for something.

 

Not sure if it is just good camera work, but the windshield looks like a good addition.

 

Car looks fun but dayamn! That barn is amazing!!!!!

 

Oh ya, Baby!!

 

Plus it is low profile ,so it won't distract from the body lines!

 

Indeed. He called it the Funster. Basically an S-10 pickup bed on I believe a model T frame ( though I think it was set up for a small block v-8 as opposed to a six cylinder)

 

Thank you sir… it is due for a paint job though.

 

I can see it now, Mustangs are traditional on the HAMB!
